to be forgotten. I am up to this time without means to get home; but I
have no uneasiness about it. I shall
doubtless get means as soon as my health will admit of my going.

My health is
slowly improving, and I, think if I have no relaps, I will be able to
leave for home some time in the month of May. I have not had a chill for about four
weeks, my appetite is quite good, and my food sits well on my
stomach, and digests well, but there are the remains, by spells, of that
foulness of stomach, which has troubled me so much; and those morbid
sensations, which were the cause the cause of it, my feet and legs swell
every afternoon, considerably.

large purchases have been made there for the Saints, and if they
should fail to purchase, it will leave us in difficulty. Grate complaints
are made and making against
